I hate...or pet peeves

I hate...
clients who call me at 6pm or later and want a delivery the next day.  Even though the office closed at 5p.  And then want me to drive 3 hours away to pick up their product and 3 hours back to deliver it, because they forgot to place an order when they were supposed to so it would get delivered on a truck.  Geesh, people, I'm your sales rep, not a truck driver.

Dumb parents who don't teach their children common social rules.  Like not trespassing ( Yesterday 5 kids where playing tag in our yard, around our vehicles).  Don't tease the neihbors dog (which would be the same as no trespassing).  Don't run over the old lady in the grocery store. Etc.

Of course, these are just things I've noticed today.

Ditto to all the traffic related peeves!
I also hate when people abandon their shopping carts in the middle of the aisle so you can't get by on either side, then stand there staring at who knows what on the shelf, pretending they don't notice you are trying to get by. 
Any form of rudeness really gets to me.

I hate that people get a dog/puppy and tie it out on a rope in the backyard for it's whole life. It's just wrong. Never comes inside, never is bothered with. Hate it!!

I hate it when my neighbor mows the lawn at 0700 on Saturday morning
I hate that stupid trend of kids wearing their pants down to their knees.
I hate it when people who neglect their dogs or pets.
I hate it when people let their dog poop in my yard and dont pick it up.
 

I hate when people abandon their shopping carts in the parking lot. On a windy day around here a few months ago, a runaway cart smashed out my front headlight and cost us $100 to fix. I always try and put back mine, unless I can't get to it without leaving the kids alone in the car, but then I make sure it's well anchored on a curb.

Hmmm... Lets see.

I hate people that have to insert a swear word in between every third word.  C'mon people, no one can get past the swearing to actually listen to what you have to say.  And it makes you sound stupid.
I hate seeing people pushing a cart full of Ol'Roy and a big box of Milkbones out of Walmart.
I hate seeing obese labs and rotties, as seems to be the trend lately.
I hate it when people only hear the first sentance of what you are saying, which reminds them of something, so they just stare at you blankly until your lips stop moving so they can tell you their own story.  This story is usually way better than your story because they of course have to one up you.  You know like you say,"My friend's bf just got her a full carot diamond ring for her birthday." and the other person says,"Well My friend's fiance just got her a 3 carot diamond ring plus a matching set of earings and pendant, while on her Birthday cruise to Jamaica."
I hate that people think Toronto is just a hop skip and a jump from where I live.  C'mon it takes me 2 and a half days to drive there for pete's sake!
I hate the expression For Pete's Sake!  Who the heck is Pete?

Ok Deep Breath.

I have one dog-related pet peeve...

People who don't watch their dogs in the dog run! I swear some people come to socialize themselves, not dogs.

I hate people who drive slow in the second lane, forcing all the truckers to lose time (and NO, I wasn't one of the ones who tailgated anyone!)

I hate people who think dogs are disposable.

I hate people who think I want to listen to their little brats scream in a restaurant while I'm trying to have a relaxing meal with my BF.

I hate people who assume that everyone is the same (religion, political party, name any other group) as they are.  Or, that theirs is the only true way.

I like nuts, but I hate nuts in my brownies, ice cream, or muffins.

My list?
 
1. Labs
2. Evangelistic christians who tell me I'm going to hell because I don't believe in God
3. People that call my dog a Nazi or tell me in some way that he is a bad dog simply because he's a GSD
 
There are a bunch of others but I'll just start with three.

Holy crap, I'm in tears now.  [sm=rotfl.gif]
 
You have all managed to touch on so many of my own peeves...especially the shopping carts!

ORIGINAL: ottoluv

-I people who back into parking spaces, especially when there are ten people behind you waiting, does it really help them leave that much faster?? They are never in the space right and waste my time.

Hey easy there...I always back in.  It's for safety reasons though.  Backing out in my Element is very dangerous because of the HUGE blindspots.  Besides I used to drive a big pickup and anything can be behind you when you're trying to back out.  Pulling out is safer and I've got better vision. 

My pet peeves:  People who dislike me backing into my parking space! []

-People who don't acknowledge my "hello" when I'm walking with the puppers.
-neighbors that complain about your dogs barking during the evening when their dog howls all day long.
-People who take others for granted (not saying thanks when the door is held for them...etc)
-people who think that I am a neo-nazi because I shave my head.
-loud kids, disrespectful kids...etc
-Intolerance.

I thought I was the only one.

I hate almost all expressions, especially business-speak.
People who need to point out every single famous person who's Canadian or has ever known anyone Canadian.
Ben Mulroney. Isn't there ANYONE else available to host things involving celebrities on television?
American news programmes
People who stand all the way across escalators. It's stand right, walk left!
Families whose members walk 10 feet apart but need to ride escalators in a clump and get pissy if you don't want to wait 10 minutes for them all to pile on together.
The parking attendants who come out at 6AM to ticket cars on the day street parking changes over to the other side of the street. It technically changes at 12:01AM, but give us until at least 10AM! It's unreasonable to expect people to get up and move their cars at midnight!
People who use the word "socialist" without knowing what it means. There are no socialist countries in Europe. Canada is not a socialist country. Socialist is a specific economic system, it is not an insult.

I don't mind guys who shave their heads, but I really hate it when guys who are balding grow one side of their hair out long to comb it over to cover the other side...

I'm not fond of arrogant salespeople.

I don't like greed or snobbery.

I don't really like being asked to buy your kid's magazines, cookbooks, chocolate bars, or other fundraisers.  Just go get me a case of mint freakin Girl Scout cookies or something else that's really good.

I don't want my own copy of the Watchtower.

I hate it when people are bigoted against immigrants.  If you aren't Native American, your ancestors were immigrants.  And, some would argue - illegal immigrants. []

I hate it when a server asks me if I want something (more coffee, ketchup, etc.) and I say "yes", but then they never come back with the item. 

I hate when you are in a building where the rest room is a onesy, for both ladies and gents, and someone leaves the seat up, and has sprinkled on the floor.  I really hate it when the "building" is my house.
[:'(]

Yup, I really hate it when you go into a ladies room and someone has straddled the seat and left "raindrops" all over it.  Yuk.

Reminds me of a little ditty, "if you sprinkle when you tinkle, please be sweet and wipe the seat!" [sm=biggrin.gif]
